Pre-Trip Sgtmgd 11-16 September 2013

Most folks that follow this on a regular basis know that this trip was supposed to be in December over Christmas at my beloved Boardwalk but due to The Sequestration act and the DOD Furloughs that followed we had to make changes. We decided to jut do a week where I could maximize my military benefits (Disney is so very gracious in all they do for us). We also had invited Nikki's Mother for our Xmas trip and wanted to find a date that would still allow her to come. When Limited Time Magic was announced it mentioned a September Friday the 13th Villians Party..and so we choose this week despite not having the details. The down side of going in September is that my oldest Daughter (18) plays Division 1 Soccer at the University of South Carolina Upstate and will be right in th emiddle of her Sophomore Campaign. She took the news in stride and told me she understood although I know she is dissapointed, she loves Disney every bit as much as I do. We also decided to take a run at the Timeshare Store and rent points versus going through Disney..a first for me. Scott and Jamie at the Timeshare store have been tremendous thus far. We were able to book a 2 bedroom Village in Kidani Village Savannah view at AKL for a fantastic price. (unfortunaterly there werent any points available for the Boardwalk) Its the only resort I havent seen in person so Im quite interested to give it a go.

Aside from myself

Nikki..Disney Significant Other and lucky recipient of spending life with me :)
Vickie..Nikki's Mom She has only been once and that was a quick trip over 16 years ago
Jamie age 11 Nikki's Disney Daughter
Ethan age 9 Nikki's Disney Son

We fly into MCO from th east Coast with an arrival of 12:44 PM and on to the DME minutes later...lol
Vickie arrives from the Left Coast at 16:32PM

We will all meet up In Disney Springs for Dinner at T-Rex at 7PM. Of course shopping will be done as wait for Vickie to catch up to us.

We will of course take in all the sights of AKL and take a swim that night before bed..

Update from the Magic Kingdom .... Hallo wishes was amazing MNSSHP in general is worth every dime .. So much fun.. Also after 2 days covering AK and DHS yesterday and the MK all day and night I've yet to use 1 fast pass .. That's right not a one.. Haven't waited more than 30 minutes for anything and that was Bells story time... I mean we must be living a charmed life... I hear horror stories about DHS being swamped for the free villains event tonight.. Glad I'm here

So glad you enjoyed it! HalloWishes is one of my all time favorites. That and the parade and worth the price of admission!
BEAUTIFUL Picture of you and NIKKI! Enjoy the rest of your trip. Can't wait to read the rest when I get home. (Off to Aruba, I am teaching there for a week and getting a little RandR in!)
